Indigenous Exercises

[Tanglang1989]

I am wondering what kind of exercises are indigenous to your country?

In Finland, for instance, we often have "Nordic Walking" (Or, literally "Staff-walking") where we have skiing sticks which have a rubber.. thingy :D attached to the end so that one can grip the earth easier. Then one just pushes down hard so that if one takes a step with the right leg, he uses the left stick.

This really makes you walk faster and it works you upper abbs, your hands (every part, basically), your legs (naturally), and your chest. If not more.

So what do people in YOUR country do?


(In cardiovascular training we have "Ice-swimming" or whatever it might be called)

In England we have "sitting on the sofa while drinking beer and watching rubbish tv" as well as the more popular "joining a large queue even though we don't know what we are actually queueing for " and perhaps the most popular, "moaning constantly about the weather" :D


In all seriousness though, Im not sure with the UK. We aren't really any good at anything anyway. Cycling is pretty big I guess. Always wanted to try Nordic walking,or perhaps cross country skiing.

Opening a can of whoop ass originates from the U.S. right? That's a pretty good workout. :p

Here in England, lots of muslims like to stand on public toilet seats in a type of squat position, while doing a number 2 (poop), great leg burner!! :D

A) I know that was a joke, but it was a tad too rasit for me.

B) Yes, it actually works. You know how the public toilets are a tad dodgy? Well, I never sit on them anymore, thanks to kung-fu :D
